Missing or degraded sequences can limit prostate multiparametric MRI. We developed MSCNet, a sequence-conditioned cross-modal generative framework for reconstructing unavailable contrasts and restoring degraded acquisitions.

Across ten completion tasks, task-specific MSCNet achieved mean structural similarity of 0.818 versus 0.798 for the strongest task-matched comparators; matched-capacity analyses showed larger differences in lesion fidelity and boundary preservation. In a blinded 1,000-case reader study, overall image quality met the prespecified non-inferiority criterion for DWI, ADC and T2W completion, but not T1W.

In a separate 200-case diagnostic assessment, AUCs for clinically significant cancer were 0.860 with acquired images, 0.841 with MSCNet and 0.797 with baseline-generated images. A locked 186-case three-hospital cohort supported multicentre transportability.

These retrospective results support quality-controlled cross-modal reconstruction as an adjunct to acquired prostate MRI.
